Wow that is outrageous. I thought it was rainy here?? We only had 2.5" last month. The only thing more outrageous is your use of "pffft". I am voting for a ban on ridemonkey of the use of "pffft" as it is super g.h.e.y......jdcamb

Seattle has a tendency to drizzle and be overcast ....a lot. :)

I remember one winter when we had over 90 days with no sunshine (Thick cloud cover) The sun never shined. That was annoying.....you go to work in teh dark...go to lunch in the dark.....and then head home in teh dark for over 3 months.

Summer are normally pretty nice. We have clumps of drizzly weather. This June (err this is july) we are well below our average.

The east coast has been hit by some nasty weather from what I hear.....so yeah you guys are beating us with the rain....but you don't hear me complaining. ;)

I am thinking 1999? Maybe 2000?

It got to me...what good is having a window cubicle when all you see is darkness. Headlights at noon sucks.

Yep. 1999. OMFG.... I arrived in Spring of '98. The summer had been awesome. I figured "I could get used to this"....then winter came

(And I drive with my lights on all the time anyway. That's what they teach you in Canada)

I drive with my headlights on too.....but so others can see me not so I can see the road at lunch time. :D Using them and needing them are different.

We are having a pretty sweet summer now though.....:D Take that TX and LA Heck the whole east coast got soaked didn't they? :eviltongu :D

Good luck. As long as the hills are alive with the phunk of indica, you will never rid yourself of displaced Californians.
We have no indica, please do not come looking for it. You will be washed aay by the constant down pours.

Yes as a wandering child i had loved my adventures searching for such prized treasures in many a person's front yard, at my peril. Once or twice a homeowner would peek out their abode asking angrily yet often inquisitively what us teenagers were doing in the middle of the night on our hands and knee's, with a shopping sack and flashlight. Most of the time they didn't buy our nightworm for fishing story as we beat a hasty retreat to the next housing development where the sod was fresh and fertile. Such was the price for a good pot of tea. ahhh memories.

Yea,
The east coast has been shat upon by the phylosophical mother of nature. Nothing new, though. Spring in Kentucky simply means rain for two weeks straight, one sunny day, then another two weeks of rain. 400+ tornados, too. :dead: :mumble:
